Africa-Press – Mauritius. <\/strong><\/span>The World Bank said that only six out of 26 countries classified as low-income are projected to reach middle-income status by 2050 if there is no sustained improvement in their growth rates.<\/p>\n

The findings come in a section published by the World Bank of the Global Economic Prospects Report, which will be released in January 2025, covering the performance of 26 low-income economies.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the bank said the next 25 years could be decisive in terms of whether the world’s 26 poorest countries will move to middle-income status.<\/p>\n

Pointing out that these countries are among those where more than 40% of the population struggles to survive on less than $2.15 a day, the statement emphasized that the countries constitute the focal point of global efforts to end extreme poverty.<\/p>\n

But progress in these countries has been stalled by escalating conflicts, frequent economic crises and persistently weak growth, the statement said.<\/p>\n

Noting that progress in the last 25 years has mostly bypassed these countries, the statement noted that the World Bank classified 63 countries as \u201clow-income\u201d at the beginning of the 21st century.<\/p>\n

The statement said that 39 countries including India, Indonesia and Bangladesh joined the ranks of \u201cmiddle-income\u201d countries, while Syria and South Sudan joined the ranks of \u201clow-income\u201d countries in the 2010s, adding that these countries have stagnated, with their GDP per capita growing at less than 0.1% annually over the past 15 years.<\/p>\n
